10 March 2010: TravelPeople and the fascinating stuff

Okay, I get the idiom "as scarce as hens' teeth" because as far as I know chickens don't have teeth (except maybe on that advert on TV), but where does "the bee's knees", "the best thing since sliced bread" (what was the best thing before sliced bread?) and "by the skin of your teeth" come from? The English language truly is fascinating. We use these phrases on a regular basis and we all understand their meaning, but often their origins are untraceable. The jury is still out on quite a number of these phrases, but it's probably best not to hear it straight from the horse's mouth - we may just lose our marbles! And whilst I'm on a roll, I'm as keen as mustard to let you know about all the fascinating stuff on www.travelpeople.co.za this week! As they say: "the proof is in the pudding" ...

You still stand a chance to win an unforgettable weekend for two at the five star Crystal Towers Hotel & Spa! Extra treats include dinner on one night as well as a couples treatment. Enter this COMPETITION today - without delay!
